Not a single one of those is a Plymouth!

I agree with most of the choices. But I would substitute one of the non-Hemi combos for a '70 AAR Cuda - 340 6-bbl.

My favorite car was my 65 Plymouth Satelite, 383 4 speed. Thats all I could afford at the time. Traded it in for a 69 Plymouth, 4 speed GTX. If I could go back in time, my choice would be a 64 Savoy. After 69, I really didn't like any of the body style's that Plymouth hade to offered.

You're right. I forgot to make that comparison. Those Plymouth's are awesome. I had a '69 Roadrunner,383 4 speed and really liked it, that was 33 years ago. Any other brand car guys want to list your 7 best? This is a great thread!!

57 FI Vette, 62 FI Vette, 63 split window FI Vette, 66 427/425 Vette, 67 427/435 Vette, 67 L-88 Vette, 69 L-88 Vette with Automatic, 69 ZL-1 Vette.........Oop's I guess these are not MoPar's. OK anything Max Wedge and Hemi powered from the early to late 60's.

Well, with respect to Paul (This is a Plymouth thread!!):

1) 1965 Chevelle Coupe 2-dr, 396 ci/ 375 hp 4-speed
2) 1966 Nova SS, 327 ci/ 350 hp 4-speed
3) 1969 Camaro Z-28, 302 ci/ 290 hp 4-speed
4) 1969 Nova Coupe 2-dr, 396 ci/ 375 hp 4-speed
5) 1969 Corvette Coupe 2-dr, 427 ci/ 425 hp 4-speed
6) 1970 Chevelle SS, 454 convertible, LS-6 4-speed
7) TBD (haha)

Now we've gotten to the most confounding part of this whole thread. How do we narrow it down to just 7 of any brand?Didn't mean to hijack the thread, the last comment of "any max wedge of Hemi ' is cause sufficient.

They have a one of a kind sound going down the track but the best is the stuttering sound they make when you put them in gear. That said, if I could turn back time to 1985 when Jerry Stein offered me an all aluminum 64 Savoy, aluminum doors and all with a complete disassembled race Hemi for 8,500, I would be a happy man. I walked away from the deal thinking it was OK but I had another project in mind, Paul.
